Starting a New Piece and……
….poured too much paint
I hate wasting paint. I remember an artist saying that she never threw left over paint away. Instead she took a fresh canvas and applied all the leftover paint to it and then later created a new painting working intuitively.
I had poured so much blue paint onto my palette that I ended up completely covering three small, 6″x6″ canvases and one 12″x12″ canvas. When they dried I decided to experiment on the larger square canvas and play with painting lavender flowers. Before I did that though I did paint the sky for my second 15″x30″ piece.
Once I get going I can’t stop so I kept painting till the lavender piece was finished.
An Update on my Art Progress
….finally completed my first big piece
I showed you how my tulip painting started and after several revisions I can now say that it is finished and ready to be sealed and wired. This is the biggest piece I’ve done to date. The canvas measures 15″ x 30″.
As you can see I kept layering and layering paint till I was happy with the results. Here is the finished piece.
